Show me your kitchen and I'll tell you who you are. Sounds cute but it's really the truth. As a nutritionist and personal trainer, I've seen my clients kitchens and it's very clear which ones will succeed in their efforts to lose weight.
The following items should find their way into your kitchen if you are serious about permanent weight loss. Will and discipline can only get you so far before you crack. Make it easier on yourself and you will be more likely to shift to a healthier nutrition program forever.
1. George Foreman Grill - Perfect for grilling lean burgers, turkey burgers, and even your favorite vegetables. This grill cooks on both sides simultaneously, and most of the fat drips out into a catcher. All you are left with is metabolism boosting, tasty lean protein. Quick, convenient and can even be cleaned in the dishwasher.
2. Cooler - Pack your snacks and lunch in a good-sized cooler. Bring it with you to work, on a long car ride, or for a Sunday picnic. You will never have to worry about eating healthy or missing meals with this smart purchase.
3. Blender - The king of the kitchen in my opinion. Without a blender, you won't be able to make your favorite protein smoothies. Buy a good one so you have no problem with ice cubes or frozen fruit.
4. Plastic containers - Pick up several small and large Tupperware-type containers. Life becomes so much easier when you don't have to cook every night. Save your leftovers in the fridge for the next days lunch or dinner.
5. Plastic Bags - Label one bag "Snack 1" and the other "Snack 2" and you're done. Put them in your cooler and off to work you go with your fuel for the day!
6. Steamer - Vegetables have never tasted so good! Try steaming asparagus with real garlic and pepper - just delicious.
7. Weekly Vitamin Case - Keep your vitamins as fresh as possible by storing them in your fridge.
Make your kitchen work for you and your body will thank you. Take a "power day" this weekend and purchase all of these health helpers in one determined afternoon. Be proud of yourself and rest well knowing that you just set yourself up for a life of good health!
